OK mate, that is 500 times better than my first build, that's great, you've got liquid cooling, the 2070 super will be good to start off, and having a ryzen 7 3700x will give you space to upgrade your GPU because it shouldn't bottleneck even the 30 series GPU's i rekon that's an awesome first build have fun!

Gaming PC Specs:

Motherboard: Gigabyte AORUS B450M Elite

CPU: AMD Ryzen 5 2400G

GPU: Gigabyte GeForce RTX 2080

RAM: Corasir Vengeance RGB pro 2x 8GB 3200MHZ

PSU: Corsair CX550M

Case: Deepcool matrexx 55

this is one of the worst ssds out there. get a better one and larger capacity to put games on it as well.

a mid-range air cooler like the arctic freezer 34 esports duo is enough for ryzen chips, no need for expensive (and sometimes less reliable) water cooling.
